old motor locked up had to replace

had to remove outer cover, then the foam parts covering the fan cage and then remove the five screws that hold the fan/motor unit in the base, after that I cut the wires at the controls so I could match the wire colors up with the new motor, had to loosen the clamps that hold the fans on the shaft at both ends and slide the fans off,when the new motor came I put the unit back together in reverse order it came apart, unpluged old wires one at a time and pluged new wire of same color in its place, all left to do was put outer cover back on and less than two hours had it back in my window feeling the cool air.

My brother installed the motor/fan.
That part was easy. We had to clean out the a/c because it was full of leaves.

By doing this repair we saved $600.00The a/c is good to last a long time.

Fan motor failing, then siezed up.

Finally my noisy a/c blower motor failed after 2 brutally hot summers of continous use plus 3 regular summers of use. My wife already wanted a central air system to replace the 1.25 ton window unit for $3,500 when the old one gave out. So when the wall unit failed I needed the right part quick or face the $3,500 replacement. I paid an ext ra $15 for faster shipping. I got the right part with the right color coded wires. I was a rather basic operation. I got the unit back into the wall and fired it up just as the weather started getting hot and humid again. My wife is happy, I am happy. Thanks so much!

broken exhaust fan
  • Joe from Longview, AL
  • Easy
  • 30 - 60 mins
  • Nutdriver, Screw drivers
Identified the problem as broken exhaust fan and ordered part. Disassembled unit, installed fan however during the cleaning process the blower fan was broken but would still work. Tested the unit for functionality, fan motor failed. Ordered the blower fan and motor. Finished the cleaning installed the motor and two fans. Assembled t he unit and returned to the thru the wall mount. Unit has been working great. Even though the process was an ordeal saved $400.00+ on doing the repair myself. I would not recommend you attempt this kind of repair unless you have mechanical skills. Fins are very sensitive and in cases have to be combed.

Repair wasn't difficult but it took sometime to remove the old motor and install the new one. Many parts had to be taken apart to gain access to fan motor.
